As part of their ongoing commitment, ICAEW has now created the Sustainability and Climate Change Community. Its purpose is to provide inspiration, insights and collective ambition for professionals delivering on sustainability and acting on climate change.

The Sustainability and Climate Change Community is open to both ICAEW Members and non-members alike. (Note: Non-members will need to create an account on the ICAEW website in order to join)
